AITEK announces the 2nd edition of the Aitek Innovation Summit, taking place October 2, 2026 in Abidjan, under the patronage of the Ministry of Communication, themed "From Artificial Intelligence to Impact.
From Artificial Intelligence to Impact
Artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming the way we work, operate and innovate. It is no longer simply changing the tools we use; it is reshaping how we produce, protect our businesses, make decisions and create new opportunities.
The challenge is therefore no longer simply to adopt AI, but to harness its potential as a strategic driver of digital sovereignty, cybersecurity, competitiveness and innovation.
It is around this vision that the 2nd edition of the Aitek Innovation Summit will take place on October 2, 2026, at AITEK’s headquarters in Abidjan.
A Day Dedicated to Innovation and Impact
Designed as a platform for dialogue, knowledge sharing and business opportunities, the Aitek Innovation Summit 2026 will bring together business leaders, technology experts, companies and key players from the innovation ecosystem to explore the transformations shaping the digital world.
Throughout the day, participants will have the opportunity to take part in:
- 5 strategic panels addressing key challenges and opportunities in technology and innovation;
- 10 practical masterclasses focused on concrete approaches, solutions and use cases;
- A technology exhibition, showcasing the latest solutions and innovations;
- B2B meetings, creating opportunities for business development, partnerships and collaboration.
More than a technology event, the Summit aims to create a space where vision, expertise, technology and business opportunities come together.
Strong Institutional Support
This second edition is being held with the institutional support of the Ministry of Communication, Spokesperson for the Government of Côte d’Ivoire.
